I’m back to scanning in old family photos and came across this really nice photo of Great Grandpa Henry Stebbins, Great Grandmother Henrietta Stebbins, my Dad as a little boy, and Aunt Tee – Helen Theona Fry – as a little girl. 
I don’t know where this photo was taken, but I think it’s really nice.

My Great Grandmother Henrietta Savage Stebbins Goodrich lived with a lady named Myrtle Hunt in Syracuse, NY for a period of time. Myrtle Hunt was one of the cheeriest people I have ever known. Her house wasn’t that big, but I remember being intrigued with her front porch. Check it out!
And here’s a side view of the porch:
I just found out the other day that after my Mom was first married and before the kids started coming along, she used to visit Great Grammie (Dad’s Grandmother). Mom said she was really nice to her, and Great Grammie would go about doing her work while my Mom was visiting with her. After she moved from Myrtle’s home, she went to live with my Grandmother for a while. Here she is visiting at my parents’ home at Christmas time in 1968:
I really like this photo because it is one of the only photos we have of her where she is smiling. Plus it is the house I grew up in, and the view from the picture windows was phenomenal! Oh, and you can see the profile view of Myrtle Hunt as she is sitting in the chair.
After she moved out from her daughter’s home, she then moved to Vermont to live with her son, my Great Uncle Martin Stebbins. This is where she died at the old age of 91.
